When trying to create a symlink between folders that require root access, Dolphin would not ask for the root password before performing the operation - instead, it will simply fail due to lack of permissions. Steps to reproduce: * Open two folders in which the user doesn't have write permissions (e.g. /usr/lib/chromium-browser/ and /opt/google/chrome/). * Drag and drop some file from one of the folders above to the other. * When it asks what to do with it, select "Link here". Expected behavior: * Should ask for root password and create a link. Actual behavior: * Fails due to permissions
